Sermon, 1st Sunday in Advent, 2023
In Advent, Christ comes to us historically for He was born two millennia ago in Bethlehem, and He comes to us in judgement as king for He will come to judge the earth. But He also comes to us in each moment, seeking to renew our hearts so that we will one day enjoy the fullness of union with Christ. This Advent season, let Christ into all of the locked away parts of your heart. He will clean out all that does not honor Him so that we can be free from shame so that nothing will prevent us from enjoying Him now and forever.
